Nice picture and great campsite! I am within proximity of this area as well, live in Broomfield.

As it turned out, that was definitely the case but I did not know that the camp hosts are still required to hold their reserved site even though the people who reserved the spot had clearly vacated it. I ended up sleeping for the first time in my camper while it was parked in my driveway. This was not a bad thing in terms of of testing things out and being better prepared for the "Real Thing".
I found a few things that need to be addressed including missing items and things that could have been better organized/packed. I also learned that campers can "sway" a bit more than I anticipated while in the overhead are. Q: would a sway bar address this?
Cheers,
Mike
